    Universiteit Antwerpen Faculteit Politieke en Sociale Wetenschappen Academiejaar 2013-2014 MASTERPROEF FROM WHITE DEVIL TO WHITE EMANCIPATOR Representation of white Western women in Indian cinema Lisa van der Waal Master in de Filmstudies en de Visuele Cultuur Promotor: Prof. Dr. Paolo Favero Medebeoordelaar: Prof. Dr. Kevin Smets Abstract Times are changing in India's film industry. While Bollywood remains the biggest film industry in the world, a new Indian cinema genre is rising nowadays, a cinema that tries to find its position between Bollywood, Western and parallel cinema. One of the striking things of this new Indian film genre, that I call New Indian Cinema, pays attention to the way white Western women are treated in India's contemporary society. New Indian Cinema depicts white Western women as survivors of this tough society they are living in. This representation differs from the way India's popular cinema, Bollywood cinema, has depicted the white Western women until now. From the 1950s onwards, they have been represented as immoral ‘devils’; the opposite of moral Indian women. Although Jane Dark has noticed a development in the representation of white women in Bollywood cinema, it seems that it is New Indian Cinema that contributes to the emancipation of this particular kind of film character in Indian cinema. This thesis is focused on the development of the white Western female character during the last decades. Based on the concepts of whiteness and the male gaze, three New Indian Cinema films have been analysed in order to discover how this new Indian film genre depicts Western women and if this representation contributes to the development of this character.
